Street Naming and Property Numbering

Information and guidance for the naming and numbering of properties and streets in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Cabinet members, local ward members, and town and community council members are involved in the street naming process, which is carried out in accordance with our quality Assurance procedure.

We consult with the Royal Mail Address Management Centre before assigning new names and numbers. Once agreed and the Royal Mail has confirmed a postcode we notify:

Public utilities

Emergency services

Land Registry

Ordnance Survey

Relevant Council services

Please Note: It is important to contact us before a newly formed property is occupied. Many companies will not connect their services or agree contracts until the Royal Mail and us have registered an address.
